地道表達：
bet one's bottom dollar：確信無疑
解詞釋義：
bet在這里是“的確，確信，當(dāng)然”的意思，button是“最低的，最后的”意思。從字面上看“以最后的錢(所有的底子)打包票”，那就是胸有成竹，確信某事了，所以它的意思就是“確信無疑”。
支持范例：
Eg.I can bet my bottom dollar that she won't marry him for anything.
她絕對不會和他結(jié)婚的,這個我什么都敢賭。
Eg.I'll bet you my bottom dollar our team will win this year.
我敢打任何賭，我們隊今年一定會贏。
Eg.You can bet your bottom dollar he won't have waited for us.
